I’m not sure who said, “Write what you know.” I’ve seen it
attributed to so many different authors. It seems like good advice, though, and
it’s why I haven’t written much about sports or athletes. To me, the term “sports
trivia” is a redundancy. Everything I know about sports I learned in a few
short months on a high school track team and a few short years watching my kids
in bowling or swim teams, or playing soccer or softball. I don’t follow the
NBA, NFL or MLB. I do remember reading about Tim Tebow, though. He was the
quarterback who knelt in prayer before games. As the average age in the NFL
is 26, it won’t surprise you that 30-something Tebow isn’t playing football
anymore. It might surprise you to hear he’s playing baseball. He’s an
outfielder with the Rumble Ponies in Binghamton, New York. While he isn’t
exactly having a banner year, he’s definitely packing the seats.
